| Résumé : |
Safety and reliability are concepts that do not always lend themselves to rigorous analysis.
However, two techniques failure mode analysis and fault tree analysis provide ways to formalize safety studies so that they acquire some of the logic and precision associated with traditional engineering.
The main objectives of the present work are covered in two parts:
Part one, examines the (FMA and FTA) techniques in terms of the state of the art, looking particularly at the human factors concept.
It also explores current ideas on acceptability margins of safety and levels of risk.
Part two, develops human factors in both techniques, by proposing a guide to criticality factors and a subjective way of rating these factors.
The markham colliery brake system is analysed in order to examine the effectiveness and flexibility of the methods in actual industrial situations.
In the conclusion, the usefulness of the subjective methods both in human reliability and assessment of risk is enhanced even more.
Finally suggestions are made as to where these techniques can be applied. |
